Excellent job! I can see that a lot of work went into creating that press. It's really heavy duty and should last for years! You're quite the fabricator.
This was a joy to watch and gave me some food for thought even if I don't have the capabilities to make one like this myself. Thanks, you should be proud!
I was thinking about rocket stoves and biomass briquettes and wondering why no-one ever seemed to make more than a few at a time. So I've just spent an hour or so figuring out how to multiply the press and get the briquettes to come out without having to turn everything, and came up with..... Your design. Almost exactly. Right down to the removable base and tray to catch them. The only difference is the shape of the briquettes and extra drainage holes. Good to know I'm on the right track! Your videos are genuinely inspiring.
@@Mladen365 It really makes me pause for thought. All I have to do is push a button on my thermostat and I either get warmer or cooler. Sometimes it is so easy to take things for granted. I would love to have a stove where I could burn that type of product to heat my home.
I was going to use my everlast welder to make a press capable of making a dozen briquettes at a time and then saw this. What a wonderful design and 25 at a time.
@Mladen 365 woooow , brother your a genius. This is a great idea , thanks for sharing this . How can I contact you ? Email address , whatsapp number etc .please get in touch
i live in n ireland and this is why when people think that people in poland, lithuainia etc etc are stupid it fucking winds me up. this guy is a fucking rain man. how he was able to think that contraption through and then make it happen. nice one
+abelton2007 ---/// All over the world, there are stupid peoples and there are genius peoples. I'm from Québec and here too we have genius people who create very useful things. Irish are great people and so this man in the video. Bonjour from Québec.
+Christian d'Anjou I think that on each of us is a genius, you just has to be a little persistent and good will, almost everything can be done if you want to,greetings from Croatia
This is a really excellent work!!! It gives a hope that u can be less depented to petreleum for heating. I will definitely try it. Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!!!
This press is very innovative. It takes good design and fabrication skills to make such a press. You might consider manufacturing these presses for customers who lack your skills, but who have the money to compensate you properly.
This is ingenious.. Very well done. Next time you are on Holiday in the US, may I suggest you come stay at my house, free room and board for your whole family, and you can help me make one of those for me in return. Awesome stuff!
now that is a nice press because you can get them good and compact unlike some I have seen and you can hold the preser on the briquette untile they are good and solid. nice giveing me ideas of a way to reuse my leaves and other screap trashe liek news paper and such.
Could the forms be 18 to 24 inches tall so you would get about 12 inch long bricks/logs and could you use the power take off from the tractor to compress them?
I have looked at your earlier design and this one and like both your designs. One question I have is why do make the briquettes so small? Why not make them the same height but longer and make fewer of them with the same press? It seems to me loading a stove would go much faster then. Thanks for the good ideas and sharing.
What huge progress. I was thinking before you where pressing the briquettes out, would he have something to catch them from underneat and then you came with you plate to slide underneat. really good. I'm not quickly impressed but now you really did it. You should patent this press. Really Greetings from Belgium Erik
Wonderful improvements over just about any thing out there! The trapdoor on the bottom is much better than my slide. My compliments. How about drying? Do you find the square shape dries as uniformly as the round? Keep up the great work!
When I saw 25 briquettes in one minute I didn't expect 8 minutes, however this is brilliant! I do wonder why the moulds weren't perforated on the sides for drainage. I imagine this would make it unnecessary to flip the entire machine over to drain but then again I can see how perforating the entire mould might just compromise it's structure, even though I find that somewhat unlikely...
Hi Dear Friend Truly extraordinary, all my big congratulations . You have a lot of work and time to develop this fabulous device. Certainly, many markets for you, no problem, I am sure. Congratulations again and very happy to have heard from you. Best wishes for you Well hello my friend , from France.
Best one I have seen.you just need to speed it up now. Pour mixture over in one action,maybe from A hopper . It The machine needs its on area to work in so run off water and mix can be reused. Top job
+Photo Doc thank you,in my other video you can see i made some changes on that press now it is easy to work and press the briquettes,on winter i cant dry my briquettes so i made briquette drying box,box can hold from 500-600 briquettes and works perfect even if temperature is below zero,greetings from Croatia
How can I get this as soon as in yesterday. I'm doing this with my hands and it's taking much of my time 👏 I'm in the mountain kingdom of Lesotho 🇱🇸 and winter is approaching soon
Like the concept of muscle power rather than using some form of energy to create fuel with. Indeed, what did you make the sludge (mixture) from and how good is it to heat with?
ingenious.... but using a longer pump handle will give a better leverage.... Or perhaps a Crank system attached to a cycle.. so the hand doesnt do the continous up and down movement.. just a few turns of the pedal.. and your done... Neat machine though.. awesome..
Trevor Morris my mixture for briquettes is from sawdust cardboard and newspaper mixed togeather with water,it is not slurry like you named i call that briquett mixture
Hello. Good job here. Can one get the design from you. Thinking of starting a small or micro enterprise using water hyacinth, grass and sawdust. I would appreciate your response. Thanks.
You could automate it better, it seems too labor intensive to be of any commercial value. What is in your slurry? a more efficient way of using waste wood in such a composite matrix is to to turn into charcoal first and mix it to your slurry. An assembly line type of set up on rollers with an electric powered press in the 50 ton range would give you faster drying time as well. How do you prepare your slurry, do you use a cement mixer?
great press, what bio-mass are you using, could you use dried grass or corn with the paper, or ground charcoal? By the way what is the two bins of corn for in the background?
I'm impressed! What you using for bonding mixture - just water or something else? 25 logs by 8 min - 1200-1500 logs can be made by one day. Not too bad at all...
awsome job you gotta appreciate the ingenuity and fabrication of someone with vision no matter big or small. on another note you can always press hash..lol
Hello sir, this is an amazing design i am currently working on replicating this project i was wondering if you will be kind to share the measurements of this design. I look forward to a positive response. Regards ALFA
Why don't you build a catch basin to reclaim your water to eliminate mess and water consumption. You could build a pan out of light flashing or use a condensation pan for air conditioning units installed in attics. I truly like your design and commend your work. Just an idea that I haven't seen anyone else doing. Even a cupped piece of tin angled to one side would act as a funnel to direct water into a bucket.
I fully agree with you. With a little bit of innovation , this concept can be improved and automation is easy for mass production and commercialisation. He needs a little help.
Nice welding, very interesting concept; leaves me wondering about creating square pulp logs for fireplaces. Why so much water in mix? Obviously, combinations of wood chips, pulp, paper could be used. Thank you for the video, it brings to mind a lot of ideas.
Wow just Wow very nicely done! If only every one was half as smart as you the world would be a more earth friendly place.I see that you have corn in the back ground.Have you every tried to make bricks with the corn husks once they have been crushed up? I know you can make Pellets with Pellet presses from corn husks and well just about every thing alts organic.Just thought id ask seeing how much corn you have you could make tones! Good Job!!
Hi there just wanna say superb engineering. May I ask the dimensions of the square chambers? You said they were 10cm x 10cm x ? Thanks and also what thickness square tubing?
Hi Mladen, you make the mixture of 3:1 parts paper: sawdust OK! But how do you get the paper in small pieces? How do you shredder the paper? Thanks for answer.
That is why briquettes are made in summer,so what shuld i do,grab some escavator to load it into press or some fancy electronic device that will fill up the press
It is a wonderful device u got there ! the best i've seen so far ;) I have just one question which is : For how long does the briquette last while it is burning ?
gledam i divim se i onda tek nakon 5 min skuzim da si ti netko sa ovih krajeva... Mozes li mi molim te reci koji je omjer smjese, koliko trebam novina da bih pravio brikete, koja je najbolja piljevina, od kojeg drveta?
Best mass production of paper briquettes I've seen on YT and this video is 12 years old. Genius!
That is the most imaginative design I have seen on RUclips.
An excellent idea. 10/10
Excellent work, best design I have seen outside of a manufacturing plant. Thanks for posting.

Great system. Don't waste the water you press out. Capture it in the slurry bin for reuse.
indeed, nice job. And yes, please reuse the water, it is not very healthy for the ground. Anyway, I have to start looking to your other projects.
That's what I thought
Very nicely done! You thought of everything, including the tray to receive the pressed bricks, which I really like. Keep it up.
Impressive. Excellent work. I'd buy one.😃
I am proud to see your hard work. It's been a Pleasure to see how it works, great Job!!!!

+mrbluenun it was hard work but it works perfect,i make some changes on that press in my other video now it is easy to remove briquettes
+Mladen “simple is better” 365 HI,
I really appreciate your reply thanks. I have seen your modified press, it seems to be better.
thank you for showing us Excellent engineering and craftsmanship for a great tool for using paper that would other wise be thrown away .
I live in a city 2.5 million .wish I was on that farm with that tractor.
Good luck with everything.(-:
Is there any way you could publish the plans for this press? It is very well thought out and made.
Awesome work on the press. Can you provide materials list and instruction for someone who may want to attempt such a challenging project.
now that is a nice press because you can get them good and compact unlike some I have seen and you can hold the preser on the briquette untile they are good and solid. nice giveing me ideas of a way to reuse my leaves and other screap trashe liek news paper and such.
Had to come here again. So happy for you. I can make one at a time. Wow 25!
Many of people have copy my press so i decide to go on 100 at time,will have to use four 5t car jack,greeting
@@Mladen365 Greetings to you. 100 at a time sounds marvelous!
Hoy 14de julio del 2022, excelente trabajo y bien esplicado, muchas gracias por compartir gracias totales desde Argentina Patagonia 🦅🦅🦅

best homemade press yet

In youtube search write: My biggest briquette press,that is press that i made and briquettes are very big,greeting
What huge progress.
I was thinking before you where pressing the briquettes out, would he have something to catch them from underneat and then you came with you plate to slide underneat. really good.
I'm not quickly impressed but now you really did it.
You should patent this press. Really
Greetings from Belgium
Erik
Great job brother
Great work.Pneumatic hydraulic jack will work great.Should have holes in the middle to burn efficiently.
Wonderful improvements over just about any thing out there! The trapdoor on the bottom is much better than my slide. My compliments. How about drying? Do you find the square shape dries as uniformly as the round? Keep up the great work!
That is a great way to get things done. Nice work..Very smart.
With the tractors hydraulics, you could get longer hoses & reverse your press for faster results.
Spot on...There is good advice for making you more efficient. Wouldn't cost a lot.
excellent and easy to make with square stock steel tubing and a bottle jack!
When I saw 25 briquettes in one minute I didn't expect 8 minutes, however this is brilliant! I do wonder why the moulds weren't perforated on the sides for drainage. I imagine this would make it unnecessary to flip the entire machine over to drain but then again I can see how perforating the entire mould might just compromise it's structure, even though I find that somewhat unlikely...
It is in one minute,have you read description of video,also i make another video of this press with modifications,greeting
Well done, Sir.

great idea. i would use a bigger bar for easier squishing/ more leverage. i love it thought I wanna make logs but more than 1 at a time.
Great idea!! Can you please tell us also how to get the paper torn so we can use it with the sawdust?
Good design. Good welds.
Excellent design
How can I get this as soon as in yesterday. I'm doing this with my hands and it's taking much of my time 👏 I'm in the mountain kingdom of Lesotho 🇱🇸 and winter is approaching soon
Brilliant machine, very well engineered. Can you use cardboard as well as paper?
Like the concept of muscle power rather than using some form of energy to create fuel with. Indeed, what did you make the sludge (mixture) from and how good is it to heat with?
Hello from Egypt!
Fantastic work, man!
My hat goes off to you :D)
those were just beautiful! excellent invention!

Or perhaps a Crank system attached to a cycle.. so the hand doesnt do the continous up and down movement.. just a few turns of the pedal.. and your done...
Neat machine though.. awesome..
I wonder what the btu rating is on pulp briquettes is? Waste paper and cardboard are free and abundant.
good work , lsimple and efficient, you could include how to make the slurry and what; s in it, thanks for the post Trevor
Trevor Morris my mixture for briquettes is from sawdust cardboard and newspaper mixed togeather with water,it is not slurry like you named i call that briquett mixture

great helpful video
Hello. Good job here. Can one get the design from you. Thinking of starting a small or micro enterprise using water hyacinth, grass and sawdust. I would appreciate your response. Thanks.
Well done. Do you sell this press?
Do you have drawings?
Judging by all the good corn on the left and cobs on the right, I'd say he is using a lot of corn cobs.
Your briquettes look very professional or commercial I would say.
Good job. Now, if you could pump the mixture with a hose it would be easier.
You could automate it better, it seems too labor intensive to be of any commercial value.

you make the mixture of 3:1 parts paper: sawdust OK! But how do you get the paper in small pieces?
How do you shredder the paper?
Thanks for answer.
Really nice job thank you for taking the time to video it
fantastic - you seem to have thought of everything to speed the process up.
How well do they burn?
That is why briquettes are made in summer,so what shuld i do,grab some escavator to load it into press or some fancy electronic device that will fill up the press
bests one ive seen

Mladen 365,
How clean does a paper/sawdust mix burn ?
Wondering about creosote buildup.
it is like wood,i am using them for many years,you have video on my channel about briquette burn test and you can see how they burn,greeting
OK thanks, will subscribe and watch them all before I ask any more questions you have already answered.
This is very awesome! Very thoughtful. Keep it up!
